Protecting the right to hunt and to promote wildlife conservation
Candidate Bio's
John Hejza
Having grown up in a family of hunters and fishermen, the ability to spend time with family and friends on the water, in the field, or at the range is something I hold near and dear. I recognize proactive measures are needed if I want to continue to enjoy these activities with future generations. I would consider it an honor to represent the members of the Detroit Chapter of SCI. I am willing to work towards ensuring that others will have opportunities to share the same experiences that I have been able to enjoy. I hope you will consider me for a position on the Board of Directors of the Detroit Chapter of SCI. Thank you.
Greg Smith
I have been involved with SCI Detroit for the past ten years. I became involved because I strongly believe in conservation and the right to hunt. I realized that just being a member was not enough. During my tenure with SCI, I have served as the Detroit Chapter’s Director, Secretary and Vice President. I am an avid hunter, primarily hunting deer, bear and elk. My primary occupation is in the financial services industry. Please consider me for another term on your Board of Directors. Thank you.
